Large organizations today are generating billions of log files daily, and recognize the need to harness the data in order to derive key IT and business insights. However, the primary platforms for analytics, including the commonly deployed ELK stack, have inherent scalability limitations, forcing organizations to break up their data into multiple disparate clusters. This significantly increases the complexity and cost of managing the environment, while reducing the accessibility to the data for the analysts that rely on it. These problems are exacerbated by complex data pipelines and frequent data transformation processes, which the legacy data platforms require. In contrast, the ChaosSearch data platform indexes all data as-is, without transformation, allowing customers to run queries and analyses against a single unified data lake, while gaining unlimited capacity and data retention time.
“By eliminating the need for costly data transport and complicated data ingest, ChaosSearch enables customers to dramatically simplify their data analytics environment, while improving their analytical capabilities. Alongside a phenomenal product, the company has a group of world-class executives in place that will drive this next phase of hyper-growth,” said Shah. “We’re thrilled to partner with ChaosSearch as they enable enterprises around the world to drive massive improvements in data access, performance and scalability of their analytics environment.”
